Plan de l’intervention
1. Epistemological stance• A systemic approach to language learning environments• Morin’s Complex Thinking• Emergentist perspectives
2. Destructuring the system’s components• Destructuring language• Destructuring learning paths• Destructuring mediation
3. Organizing chaos through modeling ? • The didactic ergonomics model • Evolving relationships within the model• An emergentist perspective for the model

Chaos : destructuring language• Syntax
• The structural properties of sentences can be explained without reference to inborn grammatical principles.
• Mac Whinney : grammar emerges from conversation as a way to facilitate accurate tracking and switching of perspective.
• O'Grady : syntactic phenomena are best understood in terms of the operation of a linear, efficiency-driven processor that seeks to reduce the burden on working memory in the course of sentence formation and interpretation.
• Morphology
• Morphological structure emerges from statistical regularities in the form-meaning relationship between words.
• Morphological structure exists but not in the categorical form commonly assumed and coming from frequency, semantic transparency, phonotactics.
• Lexicon
• The lexicon emerges from the way in which the brain responds to and stores experiences- by creating units whose strength and productivity is determined largely by frequency of occurrence. Some of these units corresponds to words, as in traditional lexicon, but many are phrases and other larger units of organization, including possibly abstract constructions.
• Phonology
• Donegan: Children begin with a set of processes (nasalization, devoicing) that emerge as responses to the physical limitations of the human vocal tract and the auditory apparatus.
• A language's phonemic inventory and allophonic patterns then emerge as specific processes are suppresed in response to experience.
• Discourse and pragmatics can be explained in similar terms => our model

Chaos : destructuring learning paths
• Non-linear• Cannot be pre-structured• Triggering interplay of complementary sets of processes in order to create
connexions.• Complementarity of processes is largely unpredictable in its results, but can
be safely anticipated.
• Three questions remain problematic: (1)métareflection (Cummins: BICS et CALP). (2)Mediation.(3)Individual and cultural differences
. The Learning Cycle model remains one dimensional => lacks temporality

Technological mediation
Distance mediation
The “analyser” concept (Lapassade 1971; Petit 1991)
“… anything that causes truth to emerge of what is hidden;
anything may refer to a group, an individual, a situation, an event, a scandal […]”
(Lapassade, 1971, p. 15)
« an individual’s knowledge is described as a personal construction mediated by teachers or peers. Distance [and technology] will not affect the individual’s construction of knowledge, but may make mediation and social interaction more complex » (Narcy-Combes 2010)
Distance : « nouvelles formes d’échanges pédagogiques non seulement grâce au dispositif technologique utilisé mais également grâce à des configurations socio-pédagogiques inédites. » (Dejean-Thricuir, Guichon & Nicolaev V. (2010, 378).
Modeling : towards some kind of order?
• Why refer to models?• Emergentism considers real world macro-objects• Finding one’s way in uncertainty• Structuring what can be structured in chaos• Construct functions (technology) and roles (human) from
interactions• A heuristic model :
• Guiding the construction of the various components of the system by the various actors
• Identify interfaces (= « places ») for interactions• The model is neither rigid nor normative• The model guides the implementation of performances

- A global vision of the macro-object (simplified here)
- Deconstruction into specialised sub-systems : teaching act, learning act, follow-up and regulation) emergence of new actors (teacher/tutor) and new roles (including learners’ roles).

Sub-system 2: learner-centred
• Process language learning
• New dimensions / actors due to specificity of technological mediation + distance
monitoringtutor
Asynchronous articulation between SS1 and SS2
• Teacher-centred system organization & planning (virtual, latent)
• Learner-centred system only when learner interacts with materials
Deconstructing the model – regulation sub-system
• SS1 and SS2 : 2 different perspectives• Teacher pedagogy driven + representations of the
computer• Learner individual representations of language
learning and of technology
Potential gaps between didactic intention and practices Need for data on system’s operation monitoring
Objectives of follow-up Individual level: learner evaluation, feedback and support Systemic level: system regulation
Roles - Tutor contributes to raise learner’s awareness of the
emerging steps in the task (Bygate)- Contributes to inform teacher about discontinuities .- Teacher in charge of reorganising system at T+1- Modes of reorganisation are context specific.

Conclusions
• Modeling concerns the learning environment / not the processes
• Functions og the learning environment Generate the emergence of conditions favorable to language acquisition Generate conditions for potential sequencing of language learning related operations
• The didactic dimension of the learning environment is non linear and unpredictable.
• Distance highlights discontinuities through the time gap between the teaching and the learning acts need for more information on learner activity (monitoring) for regulation purposes (task and learning environment levels)
• The technological element cannot accept total unpredictability its function = stabilize the environment + flexilbility to adapt to different contexts.
• The general model ensure designers take into account all the components + interactions within the system
• Important : operating the model implies defining the respective responsibility of learner, teacher and/or tutor, according to specific contexts.
